Like the victory over No. 10 North Carolina on Saturday, James led this one. He followed his 25 points and 15 rebounds against the Tar Heels with another big showing to rally the Longhorns (11-0) from an early deficit.

In Seattle, Quincy Pondexter scored 16 of his 25 points in the first half as the 22nd-ranked Huskies (8-2) beat No. 19 Texas A&M (8-3) in a game that saw Aggies senior Derrick Roland break his right leg.
